CEO Energy/Power Conference September 7, 2006

Disclosure The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a "safe harbor" for certain forward-looking statements so long as such information is identified as forward-looking and is accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the information. The use of words such as "may", "might", "should", "will", "expect", "plan", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "project", "intend", "future", "potential" or "continue", and other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. All of these forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions by our management that, although we believe to be reasonable, are inherently uncertain. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors outside of our control, that may cause our business, industry, strategy or actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties may include those discussed in the Company's most recent registration statement on Form S-1 and quarterly report on Form 10-Q on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and other factors which may not be known to us. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of its date. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
